Did the newest stock rom (G1) bring much different from one ending EM?

Aside from removing Universal Search, it also updated the kernel, bootloader, and modem. It also updated a number of applications, system libraries, and other files. Some users have reported better wifi stability.
The full list of the files changed by the OTA is here.

Is there a list of the stock ROM version numbers... Currently on eg30 and would like to see the newest version...
Thanks

"Real" stock "Official" is only EG30 and EK02. The rest of them EG31, EL13, EL26, EL29 are leaked ROMs (though EG31 was sent to Sprint repair centers, it wasn't shipped on phones)
Ok. And those leaked verions are for this specific phone? Or some other sgs2?and is that their order from oldest to newest?
What would be recommended as to fix LoS and be stable?
Thanks

Yes, everything I listed is for this phone. You are best starting with EK02 as a base and then venturing out from there.
You can find full ODIN updates for the various versions in my signature (which you might not be able to see on a mobile app so I'm listing here:
ODIN [EG30/EK02/EL13/EL26/EL29]
I'm guessing the order is alphabetical... Right?

I'm still pretty new to this. If I flash a new rom (in this case CM10) does it also flash a kernel? If I am on cm10 and flash a new aosp based kernel and decide to go back would I flash the stock Samsung kernel or is there a special one for cm10?

All ROMs include a kernel, without one it wouldn't boot. If you flash a new kernel after installing CM10 and want to revert to the old kernel, just flash the ROM again without wiping data and it will restore the kernel.

Not all roms contain a kernel fyi so keep a few on your sd card just a heads up

I didn't know that. Guess it's cause I always flash KT747 right after.

If I update my cm10.1 ROM to a newer version, will I have to re flash my boot.IMG again?
Sent from my HTC One X using xda app-developers app
Depends, if there are no ramdisk/kernel tweaks, you don't need to... but it's always recommended to flash first!
It takes about 15 seconds more?!
From next time onwards, ask ROM related questions in the ROM thread!
OK, its because I'm on holiday and there's a update. I've tweaked the karnel to boost my SD. Its the CM10.1.0 RC2 update. Also, I have customised my ROM using ROM toolbox, would I loose all my customisations after performing the update? If so, is there any way I can restore it after updating? Thanks
Sent from my HTC One X using xda app-developers app
Kernel related tweaks will be re-set... Preferences/settings of rom toolbox won't be changed if you dirty flash the latest build AFAIK! Never tried it, so can't say for sure...
Titanium Backup takes a backup of your app and then restores it.. along with all the preferences... However, again, I've not used ROM toolbox to tweak anything so can't be sure whether it will back them up as well?!
Worst case will be, you will have to do all the tweaks again! That's it!
Dirty flash??

Flashing the rom without wiping anything!
However, if you do wipe data/cache/dalvic, I'm sure you will loose everything!
Thanks, I'll try it sometime

quick question. is there an advantage to having the newest bootloader? im on LJA and running liquidsmooth 2.5
As I understand it, its required if you want to flash the latest CM.

Able to flash latest aosp and better on battery on the latest touchwiz for myself at least. No disadvantages yet.

I am trying to get clarification on running the Google Edition ROM on a T-Mobile S4 (jfltetmo/SGH-M919). I see a few threads with GE ROMs but they have been rooted/deodexed/and generally tweaked in various ways.
Is there a pure, unmodified (or minimally modified) version of the GE ROM that works on the T-Mobile S4? I am looking for something that is as clean/pure as possible.
Is there a 4.3 version of this ROM available?
Thanks!

Hi,
I'm using the Virgin ROM V2.3.1 on my TMobile GS4 for few weeks, it's been good so far, it is JB 4.3.
Below is the thread link. There are other ROMs available but haven't tried them yet.

You can reboot in recovery and then restore. I would do a search online/in this forum to find out the extact steps for restore for the custom recovery you are using.
